Ham and Potato Soup

I have been making this ham and potato soup for ten years now. It is my go-to soup recipe for potlucks, family parties or for an easy family dinner anytime. It is fast and easy and it doesn’t call for many ingredients, it’s probably why it’s been a favorite for so many years!

My kids went through a phase where they loved the movie Ponyo. In that movie the little girl loves ham, so we started calling this Ponyo soup. We still call it that and my youngest daughter hasn’t even seen the movie! My kids always look forward to Ponyo soup.

You can use whatever chicken bouillon you have in your cupboards, but I recommend Better than Bouillon! It really does taste so much better. If you have Better than Bouillon you would use the same measurement as the regular bouillon in the recipe.
